| Description | LMQL is a programming language tailored for large language models (LLMs). It offers robust and modular LLM prompting through the use of types, templates, constraints, and an optimizing runtime. It simplifies the creation of complex prompts by allowing procedural programming techniques in a query-like syntax. Created by the SRI Lab at ETH Zurich, LMQL supports features such as nested queries, scripted prompting, and custom constraints. It also provides a Playground IDE for ease of use. | SQLease is a powerful tool that allows users to generate SQL queries from natural language prompts. Whether you want to find student names in a table, fetch the current date and time from the system, or create a table called 'heroes,' SQLease can handle it. Just type a quick sentence describing your query needs, and SQLease does the rest, instantly creating the SQL query you need. |
